Three U.S. Navy amphibious warships are returning to the eastern Mediterranean to remain on standby in the event they are needed to assist Americans leaving Israel in the coming days, according to two U.S. officials.

The officials stressed an evacuation remains an extremely remote possibility and the Obama administration is not currently planning for one. Americans who wish to leave the region now are able to do so using commercial airlines.

But the decision to send the ships even if the event is such a remote contingency underscores the growing concern about where the Israel-Gaza conflict could be headed.

"This is due diligence. It is better to be prepared should there be a need," one official said Monday. Both officials said the ships would be used only for assisting Americans and not for any combat role.

The most immediate impact will be on the ships' crews and the estimated 2,500 Marines on board. They had been scheduled to return to Norfolk, Virginia, just after Thanksgiving; their homecoming will now be delayed several days depending on events, the officials said.

The ships involved are the USS Iwo Jima, the USS New York and the USS Gunston Hall. At the end of last week the ships were west of Gibraltar, before the decision was made to turn them around and send them back to the eastern Mediterranean, where they will remain for now.

The U.S. military also maintains three to four ships off the coast of Israel that are capable of shooting down ballistic missiles. That deployment has stretch for some months in the face of a potential ballistic threat from Iran.

Not to stand up against the mistreatment of the Palestinians is shear cowardness. To condem the Palestinians for fighting for their freedom when every legitimate appproach has been blocked by Israel is maddness. Stop Israel from committing genocide.

When Israel occupies a land, and the people fight back, how are they "defending" themselves?

that is funny considering V-1 and V-2 weapons were only used for a short time. I wonder what the tonnage of bombs dropped, cluster bombs , phosphuous weapons on Gaza by Israel since world war two, would also be an interesting number. A tonnage per square mile would also be interesting. Compared to the more Hamas missles since world war two. Remember at the time of the First Gulf War we claimed Saddam Hussein had the 10th largest army in the world, under reported was that Disneyland in Anaheim , California had the 10th largest submarine fleet in the world. Israel used to break the throwing arms of young Palestinian boys that threw rocks at them. Is it a wonder that those boys now men that suffer pain in their elbow from this Israeli practice now choose to throw rockets.

Hamas has never been interested in peace. The charter for the organization even calls for Israel's destruction. The solution for peace however relies with both societies. Hamas has to renounce violence and Israel has to acknowledge taking Palestinian land arbitrarily because they are tired of negotiating is wrong. Until both sides can take some of the blame for there mutual problems there will be no peaceful solutions.

AIPAC, JDL, ADL, ALL JEW ORGANIZATIONS AND SPY AGENCIES FOR ISRAEL...AMERICA HAS MORE DUAL-CITIZEN ISRAELIS THAN IN ANY OTHER NATION....END THIS DUAL CITIZENSHIP!! YOU EITHER LIVE HERE-OR WITH THE ENEMY!

GOOGLE AIPAC AND SPYING..YOU'LL SEE THAT AIPAC WAS CAUGHT SPYING FOR ISRAEL...OUR ALLY RIGHT?..BULLCRAP!!

Liar who lies & fabricator who manufactures nonsense, but the bigger question is.
Exactly where did you learn to hate Jews?
It's an issue partner, you're stunting urself with hate.
Don't be bamboozled with hate, it'll debilitate your progress.
I don't see Jews walking around hating Germans, calling them Nazis.
They moved on, and got on with life.
Why don't you try it?

you obviously never watched Ralph Bakshis' "Lord of the Rings" cartoon. And some ways what you said is very White. The Jews are known for saying never forget. So at least they will remember long after it has slipped your mind. That there were Nazis and Death Camps.

Notice how reagan got a plus rating from the jew media for his military buildup? How reagan got all the blessings for the war machine he created. The jews knew that someday they would be the benefactors of the american war machine. They (federal reserve) get to charge usury rates for money loaned for hardware the israelis get to use, at the expense of the american tax payer.

As I am sure you do not believe that any man God presented here on earth are plague. It is the individual that decides what they do. You can have a choice. It is a choice of freedom. We have to preserve this in the United States and Israel. Why would so many travel so far to be free? If we are all the same, it won't matter anymore yet we will have no colors nor diversity that makes life interesting and worth living.

No Jews= no good movies. Mel Gibson is pretty good though. I'm rooting for the Christians.

It amazes me to see another Arab mob seemingly throwing stones at an army of modern weapons. Ever since warfare advanced past swords, Arab countries/groups have been totally horrible at modern warfare. I don't know if it is something in the culture, the military organization, etc...

So, you have Hamas, mad (of course they are mad - they are an Islamic group, ever seen a happy one of those???) and Hamas wants to punish Israel so they keep lobbing dumb rockets into Israel hoping to kill somebody. Anybody. They don't care, just kill somebody. Israel fires back with precision, killing mostly military targets with some collateral damage. But, because Israel is really good at shooting and has decent weaponry and training to do a thorough job, Hamas is even more angry because when Israel shoots they hit what they are aiming at.

If Hamas would just stop sending rockets and stop trying to destroy Israel, maybe the Palestinians could grow a strong economy and everyone could have a job, have plenty to eat, own property, etc... Oh, but that does nothing to destroy Israel does it? And, of course that is the reason Hamas exists. Ok, keep throwing stones, Hamas, and Israel will shoot back with real bombs.

I think I figured out LoveUSA – hes a white pride guy...not muslim or jewish or whatever. He's a white kid pushing hate. I read all these posts and cant believe CNN doesn't do a better job of keeping track of these forums.

totally ridiculous..any other country and the state dept would simply issue a warning to any citizens living there to get out. but of course the "chosen people" get a friggin 3 warship flotilla to ferry their precious little a#&es out courtesy of the who else, the us taxpayer

As an American FAMILY living in the middle east (supporting the US economy, and government)...yes- they need to have something to evacuate us if it gets to that point. Our country has not escalated to the point that we will need it. Do you even REALLY know WHO and WHAT Hamas is all about? It's BIGGER than Israel for sure.

I mean saving american if they don't have blood on their hands......but these people in Israel who are killing innocent should not be rescued

Try having family over there that are only wanting to go to college and live in piece who have served in the US military to keep your ass safe, they need help!!!! They are American born Jews that returned to Israel for religious reasons and your ungrateful ass has no clue what some of these people have done to keep your family safe!!!

Israel is the only nonMuslim country in the Middle East. Muslims need to rid the region of nonMuslims in order to get around to the more urgent business of killing each other. No one has killed as many Arabs as the Arabs. Any action by nonMuslims against Muslins is now considered "disproportionate force." Any action by Muslims against nonMuslims is referred to as holy.

Similarly, no one has killed as many white people of European descent as white people of European descent. World War I, World War II, Soviet purges, US Civil War, hundreds of years of religious wars, Germanic sacking of the Roman Empire...

It's the way of the world.

If someone were lobbing missiles non-stop into my city I would be in favor of much more effective means to end that and would not be concerned with there being many more casualties amongst the attackers. If you poke a big dog with a stick don't cry about it when you get bit in the hopes of getting sympathy from others. The people most responsible for the deaths in Gaza are those that chose to launch missiles at their neighbor instead of forging ahead with a two state peace process.

Even though there are high Palestinian casualties, they are still launching rockets at Israel. Even the public is agreeing with Hamas' attack on Israel. So Israel needs to attack Hamas some more until they learn not to launch rockets at civilians. Expect even higher causalities IF Hamas stops, so will Israel. If Israel stops, Hamas will continue. Hamas is the aggressor.

Bet you would not have said that if you knew some of those Jews you do not root for served in our US military to keep your ass safe from the very people that are bombing them! What is wrong with you people? Have you all lost your minds on who is right in this situation? If the US were being bombed with rockets, you think we should not fight back? Israel is full of great wonderful people who only want peace, and they are our biggest ally in the middle east! I just do not understand the opinions of some of the stupid people on here who have no clue what Jews have done for our society. Its like your all acting like Hitler! It is offensive!!!!! God have mercy on your souls!!!!!

...........we should give Jews and muslims to cleanup their behind in two days and decide about the one or two state solution....and if they don't agree just nuke them ......it will solve the problem for ever.....also give Jews in US an option to talk only about america and nobody else........otherwise let them float in East river.............

This is crazy. In twelve years the Gazan rockets have only killed something like 26 Israeli's (that's 26 too many) and in less than 24 hours, Israel has killed quite nearly that many (22). Look at the numbers folks. Why on earth would anyone believe the rockets would ever require an "evacuation?" Those ships are not there for evacuation. They are either there for their own action, or they worry about something "bigger" than Hamas coming after Israel.

learn your facts Hamas is a Terrorist organization such as al Qaeda who killed our troops.
Hamas controls gaza and uses their citizens as human shields, the idf is one of the most respectful armies because they treat the citizens of gaza with respect maybe a few deaths but you know that's Hamas is fault because we want peace but they don't they don't want peace they want blood thats what Allah wants so please don't call israel a bad country using are money. Cause israel is the ONLY DEMOCRACY LIKE THE US IN THE MIDDLE EASTZ

Take it easy Peter Pan, Count Chocula. This fight is like the Ravens playing the Steelers, I don't like either team, but it is something to watch. I love living in the USA and hope both sides call for their second string players from here.

Hamas is a Nazi Organization. Article 7 of the Hamas Charter calls for the extermination of ALL Jews. Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East. Israel is the only country in that area of the world that has a growing Christian population.

Hamas leaders should bow their heads in shame for constantly provoking Israel. How many Israeli children would have been killed by Hamas missiles if they had not been intercepted? The best thing to do is not provoke a powerhouse like Israel.

why don't you man up and use your own name, you suck!!!! Screw the people that start wars, your obviously a terrorist yourself! Israel is doing the only thing they can and that is defending themselves against infidels like you!

So let's see, Benghazi we just pretend it's a protest and let the Americans get killed while the President watches. Israel we send in warships before they're really needed, just in case. I guess that's kind of like saving a car company and giving it to the union, and then letting the rest of the nation go into another recession. At least the Administration is consistent in their inconsistency.

Guess you have not paid too much attention to some of the hearings, the FBI did not tell the Whitehouse what was happening and no one was near enough in Bengazi to even get to them in time. Watch the news or read before you comment and sound stupid! You can google the hearings dip wad!

DING, DING, DING......an announcement. The innocent civilians being "murdered" by the Jews have been placed DIRECTLY in harms way by Hamas. The Palestinian terrorists have been placing their rocket launchers on the tops of apartment buildings, Mosques, hospitals, etc.
When the IDF fires back at those who have started this war by launching rockets at Israel's civilian population they fall on the civilians being used as shields for their cowardly fighting "brothers".
Many of the vrulent anti-semetic nutcases posting on this board would proudly stand up and sing "God Bless America" and tell of their patriotic visits to The Statue of Liberty. Well, nutcases...a Jew wrote "God Bless America" and the famous inscription on Miss Liberty "Give us your tired, etc, etc was also written by a Jew.
Israel is holding back from completely turning Gaza into dust...would you sit back if American civilians were being fired upon by an enemy that refuses to recognize our existence as a nation? HELL NO YOU WOULDN'T!!!

Can y'all just stop fighting? My husband is on one of those ships, and all of us that were expecting them home already are pretty upset about it. The US military has an obligation to help with Israel should it be seen fit, and there is no use fighting about it. Whatever happens is in God's hands, and if anybody has reason to make a fit about it, it's us that are directly affected.

I empathize with you, over extended tours , stop gap measure , has led to as many sevice suicides as battle causulties in this last year. I hope your husband has access to counsoling and mental health care during this misadventure.

I think that shows your true face........you people can never be loyal to the country who is actually keeping you alive......you don't deserve to be here in US.....we should stop giving you aid......you will disapprear in sand....in no time....

And, as I already said, they want to kill us for simply not believing in their own religion. They think we are the Great Satan and Israel is the Little Satan. They want to kill us period. We have to be on Israel's side as we are friends as well as the Jewish are God's chosen.

KILL-JIHAD

STUPID L-USA SO DOES YOUR LOVELY U.S MEDIA SHOW YOU WHAT THEYWANT YOU TO SEE AND NOT THE TRUTH!! IM DONE RESPONDING TO YOU WORTHLESS L-USA! CHANGE YOUR NAME

I don't understand how you can see such views. If not for the education and science, Isreal would be the same as the Gaza strip. Instead they decided to use the money they got from other countries as a source of science and schooling, therefore they are able to protect themselves and their innocent. Also, for years Hamas hid the fact they were launching rockets from school tops and hospitals were there were the innocent and frail, yet their is no public outcry for this autrocity. When each or any of us live there, that is when we can take and adimant side, if not, go fight for the cause you see fit and stop spreading you useless hatred around to all others.

BTW the US Navy has vessels on station to assist with delivery of emergency supplies to the Sandy area...and I'd guess they'd be there until the FEMA ass-hats get off their duff and do THEIR job. Embarssing to have to pick up their slack.

I would like american value back in this country.......we have never supported and should not support regimes that kill innocent civilians and babies......Israel .....we have helped you live for that long....start behaving.....stop killing innocents

The words below my post put here by CNN talk about "lively and courteous discussion." That it's not. Sad commentary on CNN's policy and the low life who frequent it. (Certainly not all the posts but to many for my American conscience to bear.

Reading some of the posts below (actually a majority of them), one can easily see why there is not peace in the Middle East. It's so obvious. It's so sad. There they are, fighting in the gutter, rats and more rats. All rabid.

I think it would be appropriate for all Jews and Muslim on this forum to identify themselves before posting ......if you live in USA .....talk only about USA......don't support crazy regimes around the world.....live like american

Really, While they portray us as the Great Satan and Israel as the Little Satan? We are supposed to stay out of it? Sorry, what effects Israel effects the USA. They are our now, only ally, in the region. The rest of the Islamic led Countries believe we are the Great Satan and want to kill us as well as citizens of Israel. There is nothing to discuss.

okay then get us better leadership. – oh I have no idea of what is outside the usa. here it is 67 degrees. no one is dropping bombs and I am eating Cheerios. – is that what you mean? – you can not stop a war by posting. we tried it and it didn't work.

All you Israel haters.. shut up!!! ground war is the only way to get rid of those animals you call muslims! UNLIKE OBAMA B.B HAS THE PANTS TO DO WHAT HES DOING NOW!! ISRAEL TO THE RADICAL ISLAMISTS.. (TRY ME!!)

Typical ....jews mentality to go after every rational person.........I used to love and support Jews....but enough killing and coverup......you gotta stop that......I know you are getting paid to post here.....but feel sorry for innocent babies you are killing

With what do you have a problem? With love? Or with USA? or both? If you're from today's israel, I wouldn't be surprised if it's both. You didn't provide any argument; just insulted the poster. That is unfair, which is why I'm writing to support LoveUSA. I generally support the underdog, which is only why I'm for Gaza to be left alone. Even Hamas right now looks more sane than Israel.

Speaking of Mental Health Professionals, we have had as many service suicides as battle causulties this year. Hopefully you will become concerned about the mental stress the service people are under and ensure they get the mental health care they need NOW, in the field where it is happenning . How tragic it is to fight survive then kill yourself. Please have some mercy on mentally ill service people. Do not disrepect them as you do other mentally ill people. I believe they still have value in our society and can treated and mainstreamed again.

You sir are an idiot. I am willing to bet that you couldn't point out ISRAEL on a map if your life depended on it. By the way, your life DOES depend on Israel. Do some research of what Israel contributes to USA technology and medicine.

Good try, changing your name. We are allies of Israel. Israel has been terrorized by Hamas for many years. How many Women and children have been killed in Israel when the Jews are God's chosen and Israel is their land as is written. They have so little land in the region it shouldn't be a problem.

ior maybe once american's read the muslim brotherhood's manifesto from the late 30's they would understand who to support...what a bunch of ignorant moron's commenting...we should support those that reject the muslim pigs

Exactly! The press and the U.S. government would like to forget the attack on the USS Liberty, that killed more than 30 American sailors and NSA technicians. The attack, which lasted for hours, was unquestionably deliberate despite the claims Israeli apologists and efforts by U.S. politicians to bury the entire incident. The Government of Israel is not to be trusted. The U.S. ships in the area need to be on guard against another attack by Israel.

It seems to me that ALL of the problems in the middle east is caused by muslims in general. Killing people in the name of your stupid religion makes you a fool and shows the lack of intelligence in that part of the world.

Keep killing your kind, maybe 1 day, there will be no more of you to start wars.

I say, let them blow each other up and then we can turn it into a glass parking lot later. Much better use then all of the people dying for a stupid ideal.

Learn some science, math, economics and politics, maybe you will get smart enough to know better then running around in robes all day claiming your religion is the reason why you kill each other.

2012 and there seems to be nothing good from the middle east except moronism, murder, theft and corruption. NOTHINING good from there at all.

Israel, oh Israel, I support the righteousness of you in continuing to reveal the glory of our God. Please act in mercy to these who think they cannot fall....remind the world of why you deserve support in a land which was hostile thousands of years ago and is still fighting against you. Is mercy strained? Is violence the rule of the day? You are smarter and will stand for the values we believe you embrace...the world trembles....and needs a holy Israel.

Your religious nonsense aside, there is nothing holy about Israel. They have done everything in the power to intimidate, harrass, imprison and impoverish Palestinians. When the Palestinians take action to defend themselves, the Israelis point to the action as justification for even more of their brutal treatment. There cannot be, and will not be, peace in the Middle East as long as Israel exists.

I hope Israel lives up to the expectations of the nuts posting here and drops about 250 nukes on every Muslim population center in the middle east. If they wanted to they could wipe out 90% of the Muslim population in the course of a couple hours!!!! If Israel was really the aggressor, the "bad guy" you Muslims would all be dead. ...............................You picked the fight and are now wining like a bunch of little girls. Don't shoot rockets at Israel and they won't kill you. Pretty simple. I

You need to go back to school if your chathoic. Jesus was killed by the people. These people were just like you and I. If we don't love one another. Israel has the right to protect there family's what would you do if someone was shooting missiles at you.

Can't shoot nukes unless those are shot first. If Jews went on a wipe out mission, it would scare other countries to join in fear of future possible wipe outs against them.

History Lesson:
Jewish occupation of Israel dates to 3,000 BC. Arabs migrated there in the 18th and 19th centuries from Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and other Arab countries. Karl Marx, grandson of two Rabbis, wrote in 1854 that Jerusalem’s 4,000 Muslims (Turks, Arabs, and Moors) subjugated and oppressed the city’s 8,000 Jews (and 3,000 Arab Christians).

The League of Nations (1922) and the UN Charter guarantees the land west of the Jordan to the Jews and the land to the east to the Arabs. In 1947 the UN offered some of the Jewish land to the Arabs, but only if both Jews and Arabs agreed. The Jews agreed; the Arabs did not. Surrounding countries invaded Jewish land and deported Jews from their countries. The Jews got their land back after Egypt started the 1967 war and was defeated. The Jews gave Egypt back the Sinai and Gaza. So Jerusalem is in Israel and the Jews are building on their own land guaranteed to them by the UN. The West Bank is Occupied Israeli land – occupied by “Palestinians”.

You are a very angry person. Look from within to control this. Only you will be judged on your day. Israel has been terrorized by terrorists on the Gaza Strip for many years. This is not new. How many there are killed each time? Why is there a video of a fallen person in Gaza who is claimed to be injured by Israel defense, who walks away? Why is there a video of a child injured, claiming by Israel who was already proven to be injured by Hamas?

I guess you are one of Hamas...because the way you wrote...inner person of you is very darkness, lack of questioning why Palestian Goverment and its people are always poor, cannot create works for its citizens...that's why they have to do whatever Iranian Goverment ask....Do you want the Chinese wipeout Isralies?

Seriously, we are not going to provide support for Israel, our only ally in the area, but only provide evacuation means for our own citizens? We are an ally of Israel. Hammas (sp) has fired many more times against Israel than Israel upon them. Israel has to go in on foot as the enemy has their weapons based in civilian territories. That was a tactic to ensure if Israel hit the targets, innocents would be killed which would further incite the World to be upset with Israel for defending itself by killing civilians although the rocket launchers were located there. That's a good tactic. But, now Israel has to go and get rid of the launchers on foot, to eliminate hurting the innocent people as much as possible.

CHICO...GO TO THE http://WWW.USSLIBERTY.COM WEBSITE..WATCH THE VIDEO OF ISRAELI AIRFORCE MASSACRING 34 AMERICAN SAILORS ABORD THE USSLIBERTY IN 1967..THEN TELL ME ISRAEL IS AMERICAS ALLY -THEY ARE TERRORISTS AND USURPERS OF NATIONS - NOT AMERICA'S ALLY!!

ISRAEL HAS OVER 200 U.N. SANCTIONS AGAINST THEIR ILLEGAL OCCUPATION OF PALESTINE...AS HELEN THOMAS HAS SAID "TELL THE JEWS, TO GET THE HELL OUT OF PALESTINE"...AFTER SAYING THIS HELEN THOMAS WAS FIRED FROM HER BOSSES..AND WE KNOW WHO THEY WERE...JEWS! WAKE UP AMERICA!

Sorry, God's chosen people were promised this land which is why they obtained it again as is written. The Jewish are God's chosen. We, Americans of the USA, are allies of them and believe they deserve to have their Country without being bombed every few minutes.

I LOVE PEOPLE WHO DO NOT KILL WOMEN AND CHILDREN AND START WARS, WHILE SPILLING THE BLOOD OF OTHERS!! ISRAEL DOESNT SPILL THEIR "PRECIOUS" BLOOD...THEY HAVE AMERICANS DO THAT FOR THEM! TIME FOR THE JEW TO SPILL HIS BLOOD FOR THEIR JEW WARS–LEAVE AMERICA OUT OF THEIR WAR MONGERING WAYS!! ISRAEL HAS NUKES, AN ARMY, A NAVY , AND AIRFORCE-THE PALESTINIANS HAVE ROCKS AND GLORIFIED BOTTL ROCKETS –DO THE MATH FOLKS! WHO ARE THE REAL TERRORISTS HERE!! –ITS THE RABID ZIONIST JEW GOVERNMENT IN ISRAEL!!

LOL, if the "Palestinians" stopped lobbing rockets, or blowing up school buses tomorrow, there would be peace. If Israel disarmed there would be a new holocaust.

Kinda wearing out your opinion! Really the bottom line is Hamas is a terrorist organisation, they cloaked themselves in a people held hostage by one mans leadership, who's avoid oath was the destruction of Israel.
Like cowards, they act as criminals, hide behind a civilian population, women and children, the fighters are imported Jihadies.
Just my 2 cents worth on what is going on. Didnt even have to yell to make my point. All I have to say.

^5 JW–NOW IF AMERICANS FIND OUT NOT ONLY ABOUT THE USSLIBERTY, BUT THEIR INVOLVEMENT IN 911...WE WONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IRAN...ISRAEL WILL HAVE THE BEST DAMN MILITARY WHOOPING SOME ISRAELI ASS!! AND IT WOULDNT BE SOON ENOUGH!!

So what?
It was an accident.
Liberty was a spyship in the wrong place at the wrong time during a war.
What about Pat Tilman?
What about Chip Williams and crew?
What about Crazy Horse 18?
It happens in war, "friendly fire" my friend.
But, what happened to you?
You hate Jews, that's like a very old fashioned disease.
Do you walk around hating Italians too?
Do you hate Catholics also?
I bet you hate that there's no more Twinkies.....come on, be honest.

Terrorist OCCUPIED STATE ISRAEL

israel has nukes– gazans have glorified bottle rockets and stones....tell me why then is israel bombing and killing women and children as we speak!!??

It's because Hamas and other terrorists operating in the Gaza Strip are hiding themselves and their weaponry among the civilian populace, so when Israel DOES destroy them, Hamas can turn to the world and say "Hey, Israel is killing innocent people" when in reality, it's their own fault for placing these capabilities among civilians in the first place.

Of course we would find jew haters and islam apologist on this CNN link. Get the facts about palestinians you fools! Yes Israel has nukes but they are not animal\s like the Jihadists. If they had them dont you think they would have used them already!!bGet it it straight you morons...

You Anti-Israeli people make me sick with your posts. Literally sick! You obviously do not know your history. Israel was given to the Jews before the Muslim religion was even created. It was reassigned to Israel by your own President... you know, the one whose leadership brought us victory in WWII, bumped us us to the status of a World Power and designed the United Nations, which has provided humanitarian services, prevented many wars and continues to serve everyone globally. The US had traditionally stood with Israel and should certainly do so now. If you bother to check your news, Israel was not the one to draw first blood. CNN is just in bed with the current President and his political faction, which supports the Muslim palestinians. Take time to READ and you will notice that there are little or no "human interest" stories making you sob about Israeli babies dieing and having their homes destroyed yet oddly, there are lots about Palestinians. Hmmmmmmmm fair and balance? I think not.

you are ill informed at best, or a sick liar at worst. Stop defending murder. Israel's creation and its actions have always been immoral and illegitimate. The presidents that supported it now, or before do not make Israel any less illegitimate or their barbaric actions any less unjustified. STOP DEFENDING MURDERERS AND TERRORISTS .

It's so sad how people think like you, either out of wickedness or stupidity. Voiceofreason is right. Gaza sent those bombs first and killed/injured innocents including small children in Tel Aviv. They have been sending missiles toward schools, hospitals, anywhere they can potentially do the most emotional damage because they are sick people that can not reason and have been born into a world of hatred for Jews and Americans.

Love USA

I hate people who bring biblical things to justify their killings............who exactly gave you the holy land because my ancestors ......left me a diary from 1000000 BC and told me that holy land belongs to me and is given to me by my lord......so who the F ....are You.......

You can't cherry pick. OK, say it was given to "the Jews." It wasn't given to a bunch of 8th century converts. Not the same people. Israel has stuck a knife in our back numerous times like selling our secrets to the Soviets and China. They are parasites that live off our money while we are broke. They constantly start wars we have to pay for and fight. They run in the price of gas which is destroying our economy.

"Muslim Palestinians" That little trope of yours falls apart when the fact is known that many Palestinians are Christians. Suddenly fleecing the Christians isn't so easy. Also why you don't want it reported that Jews spit on Christians in Israel – look it up.

Actually, Alex, the percentage of Christian "Palestinians" is in the low single-digits and the majority of those don't live in the Palestinian Territories – they are Arab citizens of Israel.

Also, Israel has never started a single war – not one. EVERY Israeli military action has been in response to attacks made against them by others; their neighboring countries or the terrorists they harbor, train, and arm. I also dare you to find a single instance of American forces in combat with/for Israel in ANY of the Arab-Israeli conflicts. You won't find one because it's NEVER HAPPENED!

Pull your head out of your tukhus and look at reality once in awhile or just toddle away and play with your S.S. dagger while the adults converse, heh?

Jalil

Deu 31:20 "For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxen fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and provoke me, and break My covenant."

1 Ki 19:10 "And he said, I have been very jealous for the LORD God of hosts: for the children of Israel have forsaken Thy covenant, thrown down thine altars, and slain thy prophets with the sword; and I, even I only, am left; and they seek my life, to take it away."

Isa 24:5 "The land also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant."

Jer 11:10 "They are turned back to the iniquities of their forefathers, which refused to hear my words; and they went after other gods to serve them: the house of Israel and the house of Judah have broken My covenant which I made with their fathers."

Read your Bible, before you spew your untruths. There is no such thing as the land of Israel, the Jews have broken their covenant, thousands of years ago and they are now only stealing, looting and slaughtering, in the name of falsehoods. You are a blind, ignorant, repugnant sheep.

LOL. A lot of crazy talk indeed. There is something to the USS Liberty story, though...the controversy around that was never settled. The Israeli air force acknowledged attacking the ship. The debate is over whether it was an accident or not.

November 20, 2012 at 12:53 pm |

Rick

The USS Liberty was a ship in an active war zone and our president "forgot" to tell Israel that we were spying. Also, an Egyptian ship was reported in the area to have been firing at the Negev coastal city of Eilat. Israel mistook the Liberty for the Egyptian ship.

Remember at this time Israel was having to defend against Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Iraq and even Saudis. Their Air Force was running 24/7 with no breaks and they had little time to be flying around trying to identify ships.

blah

Or we could skip going to your pathetic conspiracy sights and look up video from actual news networks showing the Palestinians holding massive celebrations after the 9/11 attacks.

In the past I have always supported Israel but honestly ......there is something about Jews which is not right......they are killing babies and .......is using our media to show that they are innocent.....and fight a real war.......all they are doing is using our weapons and killing innocent civilians.. ..just so that Mr NYahoo could win the upcoming election.. ..

There are plenty of Jews that are against this, and plenty of gentiles that are supporting this terrorist aggression. Iran has one of the largest populations of jews outside of Israel. It is important to understand that Israel is not a Jewish State. It is a Zionist state. They are not religious jews, they are zionists, and there are plenty of jews who are against not only the actions of Israel over the years, but also its occupation of land.

What would you have Israel do when the rockets launched at them come from areas with civilian polulation? Your comments should be directed at Hamas for launching rockets first of all and then for doing so from civilian areas.

Not all Zionists are Jews and not all Jews are Zionists. In fact, I know many honorable, humanistic Hebrews who oppose the Israeli occupation. Conversely there exits numerous Christians, and others, who do support the Israeli occupation.

I love the internet! To see a once opinionated person's direct views changed when the media no longer has the only "news" to ram down peoples throats. It's great to see how people are waking up...to watch our news media do its song and dance with its lopsided views and "facts" always siding with Israel, and then one can go on the net and find out facts nowhere to be found in our media...it's beautiful. It makes one question,what in the h*** is going on here? It's the first step in one looking down the rabbit hole, smacking them in the face. "Something is not right here." "Don't pay any attention to that man behind the curtain." Oh but do, and seek them out.

NUKE the HAJJ..... Palestinians had opportunity's for peace and chose Terrorism. So Israel should plant a tactical nuke in Mecca and the HAJJ. Allah akbar a**hole*. Teach them tolerance for once... Then blame it on Al qaeda...Terrorist cabals are responsible for the Palestinian people's own suffering and yet the people do not resist these unfounded claims.
